The cost of misunderstanding what everyone knows (on pain of charges of “Islamophobia”) continues to mount, and yet no Muslim groups in the West have any program to teach young Muslims the true, peaceful Islam we all must believe in (again, on pain of charges of “Islamophobia”) but which no one has actually ever seen. […]

Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood says UN document on violence against women violates Islamic rules
Just like the Mufti of Libya. How did this Tiny Minority of Extremists get into positions of authority? Passages referring to sexual violence seem to be the points of contention here. And it is no wonder: when the Qur’an mandates the beating of disobedient women (4:34) and Muhammad forbids women to refuse sex to their […]
Bangladesh government forms committee to identify and take action against those making “derogatory remarks” about Islam and Muhammad
If this committee operates along the lines that Islamic supremacists have been operating on for years now, it will classify as “derogatory” even accurate and truthful remarks about Islam and Muhammad that it would prefer Infidels not to know. And some Western “journalists” rush to accommodate this Muslim rage and hate by joining the Islamic […]
#MyJihad in Afghanistan: Jihad-martyrdom suicide bomber murders 10 at goat polo game
“There is no fun in Islam,” said the Ayatollah Khomeini, and what could be more fun than kicking around a headless goat carcass? “Suicide bomber kills 10 spectators at Afghan goat polo game,” from Reuters, March 13 (thanks to all who sent this in): (Reuters) – A suicide bomber blew himself up during a traditional […]
EXPOSED: Aslan Media Editor-In-Chief Nathan Lean is “Garibaldi” of hate site Loonwatch
I’ve written several times lately about how today’s politically correct culture rewards mediocrities who would never have gotten any notice had they not mouthed the proper opinions and thereby won the approval of the elites. Chief among these is the Islamic supremacist Reza Aslan, who is one of the most prominent, popular and respected Muslim […]
Obama’s New Libya
Over at FrontPage Mag, via RaymondIbrahim.com, I discuss the latest indicator of the new Libya: a tortured-to-death Christian: Remember all the hoopla the Obama administration engaged in after helping Libya’s “freedom fighters” oust (and sodomize and murder) the nation’s former president, Muammar Gaddafi? Remember the rationale used by Obama to justify using the U.S. military […]
Iran: Jailed Christians face exorbitant bail demands
Of course! It is the kuffar’s place to pay the jizya! (Cf. Qur’an 9:29) An update on this story. “Iran: Detained Christians face exorbitant bail demands,” from the ASSIST News Service, March 13 (thanks to Twostellas): Five members of the Church of Iran denomination appeared before a judge at the 14th Branch of the Revolutionary […]
Illinois police reject imam for chaplain post because of jihad terror ties — he said: “O Hamas, teach us the rifle”¦O Hamas, raise the banner of Jihad”
No doubt everyone assumed that Kifah Mustapha was a “moderate” until these revelations were published. And there’s the rub: the police, among others, should have vetted him themselves. “Illinois Police: Terror Ties Cost Imam Chaplain Post,” from IPT News, March 12: Court papers filed in an Illinois federal civil lawsuit make it clear that a […]
Robert Spencer: Why I am not a conservative
Over at Atlas Shrugs I discuss why the common categorization of me as “right-wing” is all wrong: Many years ago, when I interviewed the great avant-garde saxophonist Charles Gayle, I asked him about bitter criticism he had received for his tendency to preach a pro-life message in the middle of his concerts. “Yeah,” he said […]
